Award-winning composer for video games and Scottish artist, Barry “”Epoch”” Topping (PARADISE KILLER, SENTRY, THATCHER”S TECHBASE, ENCOUNTERS) returns with “”The Needs””, 11 songs of lavish reflection in a modern city pop style. The album takes the listener through an emotional exploration of identity and change set against the backdrop of late summer. It fuses city pop, rock and dance music into a rich, dreamy blast of video game-tinged modern pop music. But “”The Needs”” is more than just an album title, like Barry explains: “”It”s a new ensemble built around a core of the musicians that worked with me on Paradise Killer: Fiona Lynch, Fabian Hernandez, Thomas Temple and Kyle Murray-Dickson. A new trio of horns Elin Andersson, Nicklas Dahlin and Simon Fransman round out the full lineup.
